Not the biggest gallery. But because it focuses on one aspect of art one of the most interesting. As well as loads of pictures of old white people the new displays are starting to look at modern themes and examining the experience of immigrants into the UK. And I'm all in favour of that.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
It is open again after three years - and it is glorious. A smart new entrance punched through where there used to be a window on the north side of the building and a reimagined and rehung collection. It felt as though there’s a greater emphasis placed now on the history of women’s rights and suffrage and on the effects of Empire, rather than it’s supposed glories, and less emphasis on generals, dukes and imperialists. It’s a wonderfully informative place to visit and you grasp history in an entirely novel way, through a selection of individuals, many of whom are overlooked in traditional history. And Larry’s speakeasy-style cocktail bar restaurant, in the basement, is worth the visit for its photographs and cool decor alone.
I feel horrible putting 3 stars here since they just reopened but honestly they have a lot of work to do. So many people at this museum, they let in way too many people so what's the point of booking a time slot in advance like I did? I couldn't see a lot of the painting because of how crowded. Too many school children here at once it was not just one school there were many. Really long wait for toilets and a few toilets had already been overflowing and it had only been identified for 1.5 hours. At this point I can't reccomended anyone go here unless it changes.
This gallery deserves better crowd management because right now it is awfully full. There should be a queue like in the National Gallery, which actually makes the paintings accessible. Additionally they arranged way too many schoolchildren groups all at once and some were just laying on the floor and drawing I know we are all excited for the opening but there should be some measurements put in place.
Went as a group of 6, we had prebooked a timeslot, but when we got there, it was obvious that yhis wasn't necessary. No one asked for our tickets. They have done a great job with the renovations, and the galley has a fresh feel to it. We were disappointed the McCartney exhibition wasn't open when we were there. I loved that they have used the mosaic floor tiling they found during the renovation
What a fantastic renovation. I was there a week after the re-opening and the place was full of happy, noisy people enjoying the Gallery. It's a big place so if you can I'd go more than once. I loved the Tudors through to my personal favourites, which were the great Victorian engineers. Top painting was actually of Jenny Lind whom I now have a monster crush on. The painting descriptions are in good plain language and they are there to inform, not posture. This place is a breath of lively fresh air and a real triumph of public art.
After being closed for sever years for refurbishment I went here today when it reopened. At least it was free because the paintings were almost all very boring, nothing outstanding. The photos? I've taken better. It's not enough to include "celebrities". The Tudor section was dull. A section on the ground floor was aimed at diversity. I want art not personal political agendas. All in all, tedious. I was in and out in 15 minutes.
Always enjoyed this small gallery that houses a collection of portraits of historically important and famous British people. Can't wait for it to re-open this month so I can revisit in the future.Visited onWeekday
Extraordinary gallery! I can't wait to get back!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
One of my favourite places to visit in London. Can get annoyingly crowded but the paintings are wonderful and worth beating through the tourists just to spend a couple of hours in the company of such wonderful art.
